Well...all I can say is if you are really worried about an EMP, then I hope you put a points distributor and not any kind of electronic ignition, as the control box for it would go bye bye.

I have a faraday cage installed in the truck with replacement parts that will/may burn out. Everything is setup for a quick change. All my wires are shielded and grounded.

and for those that say this mod will cause a loss in power... I can burn the tires to fourth gear, cant even use first without smokin the crap outta my tires.

Just need help getting the alternator issue fixed. Not gonna get into a flame war about this. If its not EMP it will be CME. one way or the other, I have a great truck, more power then I know what to do with, and if SHTF, Ill be mobile. Its a Win-Win-Win for me.
